Sintesi dell'editore
This is a book of guidance for life's journey rooted in the wisdom of ancient China. Best-selling author Deng Ming-Dao provides key poetic lines that distill the essence of Taoism, organizing them in the form of a journey. The material here is drawn from three sources: The Tao Te Ching, The Yijing, and 300 Tang Poems.
Deng Ming-Dao writes: "We walk the Way each day. We don't know what's ahead and so it's helpful to have the wisdom of others to guide us. They have left us a message to encourage us. They have spoken of the joys, griefs, and purity that we should embrace. Like good pathfinders, they give us direction and prepare us for what we might encounter. They let us walk for ourselves. We have a wonderful companion for the journey."
The following lines reflect the inspirational nature of this book:
"A good traveler leaves no footprints."
"Think three times, then move."
"Words can be worth a thousand pieces of gold."
"Ancestors plant trees. Descendants enjoy cool shade."
"A journey of one thousand miles begins with a single step."
This is a lovely audiobook that will function as a gift for all occasions and as an object for those looking for daily sustenance on life's journey.

Beautiful to contemplate.
The audio and narration are very clear and consistent. I am a grad student doing research on Taoist principles.

not the best audio book, better written
I think the text is plenty interesting, but it just doesn't land as an audio book. this is probably far better as a written book that you can go through slowly and deliberately, soaking up the words as you go.

this has become one of my favorite audiobooks
Lloyd James has always been one of my favorite readers ever since I discovered Robert Heinlein but this is on a new level and it opens up my mind to philosophy and history that I never knew I needed. taoism and Confucianism is a huge asset to this world and I believe everybody should go through it.

Well translated & read
In my humble opinion, the narrator did an excellent job in his recitation of a difficult work.
